Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What are the exact measurements of this Hermès Garden Party 36 Bag? A: This bag measures approximately 38 x 24 x 17 cm, with a handle drop of 15 cm. It is a roomy tote size that works well for everyday use while keeping a refined silhouette.
Q: What typically fits inside the Hermès Garden Party 36? A: The Garden Party 36 is known for its spacious interior. It will typically hold daily essentials such as a wallet, phone, sunglasses, keys, a water bottle, a pouch, and a small cosmetic case, with room left for extras such as a book or light knitwear.
Q: Can this bag fit a laptop or A4 documents? A: The 36 size is often chosen as a work or day-to-day tote because of its generous proportions. Slim A4 papers, small tablets, and some smaller laptops may fit, but this depends on the exact dimensions of your device or folder, so we recommend comparing your items with the measurements listed on this page before purchasing.
Q: Is the Hermès Garden Party 36 suitable as an everyday or work bag? A: Yes, this size is a popular choice for daily use thanks to its roomy shape and practical open interior. It is especially useful if you like carrying more than just the essentials, though it is best suited to shoppers who are comfortable with a snap-top tote rather than a fully zipped bag.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder? A: The dual handles allow comfortable hand carry and may sit on the shoulder for some, but the fit is usually quite snug, especially over thicker clothing. It is best thought of primarily as a handheld tote. This item does not include a shoulder strap.
Q: Does this bag close fully? A: This piece features a snap button closure rather than a full zip top. That makes it easy to access while helping keep the contents together during daily use.
Q: What materials and finish does this bag have? A: This vintage piece is crafted in beige canvas with brown leather trim and silver-tone hardware. It is made in France, and the combination of canvas and leather gives the Garden Party its practical yet polished look.
Q: What is the condition of this particular bag? A: This item is in good vintage condition. The exterior canvas has visible stains, and the leather trim shows scuffing on the corners and edges. Inside, there are light traces of use, while the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: How should I care for this vintage canvas and leather bag? A: We recommend gentle handling. Avoid overfilling the bag, prolonged exposure to rain or direct heat, and contact with dark fabrics that may transfer colour. For upkeep, lightly wipe the canvas with a soft dry cloth and store the bag stuffed with tissue in a breathable dust bag when not in use.
Q: What product information is included with this item? A: No additional product information is included with this bag. If an item such as a box, dust bag, or strap is not listed on the product page, it should be considered not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this Hermès bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted by in-house experts using detailed checks of materials, craftsmanship, hardware, and brand details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
